Preparing to start Automation

  • set 'anymaster', 'mozilla-beta', 'any-builder' on clobberer
  • reserved 8 slaves
echo "10"> master/reserved_slaves_bm08-build1
  • Updated l10n changesets for desktop, mobile
  • Land automation configs (are you or buildduty going to reconfig? great, merge. otherwise double-land only your configs)
  • Tag buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, & tools with build & release tags
hg tag -f FIREFOX_10_0b4_RELEASE FIREFOX_10_0b4_BUILD1 FENNEC_10_0b4_RELEASE FENNEC_10_0b4_BUILD1
  • cherry-picked patch needed for updates to work on buildbotcustom
  • update and reconfigure the master
  • dry run of release-sanity
PYTHONPATH=. python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u jhford -pfirefox,fennec -V 10.0b4 --branch mozilla-beta --build-number 1 -c release-firefox-mozilla-beta.py -c release-fennec-mozilla-beta.py --dryrun localhost:9001
